Starting
Sustainability is not yet on the agenda. Awareness is limited, and few or no actions have begun.
Aware
Sustainability is recognised as important, but action is informal and inconsistent. Early conversations are happening.
Active
Practical actions are underway, often led by staff or volunteers. Reducing waste and energy use, but not yet measured or embedded.
Embedded
Built into day-to-day operations, governance and planning. Policies and action plans are in place, linked to funding and social value.
Leading
Shapes strategy and decision-making. The organisation shares learning, supports others and influences partners and funders.
